Or they just kept it quiet until announcing it on independence day. Remember Shk Zayed?

Why not 2 million?

Both have the same engine. The main difference is the Pathy has 4-wheel independent suspension, and the (lighter) Xterra has independent-front solid-rear suspension. Means Pathy more comfortable and Xtra is better offroad. http://www.drivearabia.com/nissan/nissanpathfinder06.html http://www.driveara...

Anyone know of a reliable gas bottle supplier ?

Look for Al Shafaq Gas. They give out flyers there. Hope Du gave you your phone/net/cable connection already.

Who's son has PMS?

There is descrimination - specially if you are indian/pakistani/phillipino/bangladeshi and it is very overt. No need to ship your stuff. They have everything here. If you have a place to store it that would be best unless you are moving here for good. A pint of bear costs 7 bucks (25 dirhams) A few...

Think of it, how else could the USA afford to pay for all those bombs!

Nah, we just borrow the money from china

Not really. You guys pay China to buy their lead-painted products.

Should have hit home for anyone from Abu Dhabi... that's where it was filmed. I thoroughly enjoyed the movie myself. was it really filmed there? Hehe, did you think the Saudis would let that movie be made there? I spent the movie figuring out which scenes were in Abu Dhabi and which were in Arizona.

Maybe they'll stuff Indian labourers on top of each other and make a buidling out of it. They're cheap.

Doing a visa run to Oman tomorrow. Will keep you posted on how that goes!!

I thought your company would give you your visa by now.

They did break up a mass homo wedding last year.

I just got my first speeding fine. I think I'll ask for a photo and frame it.

Still don't know where they were hiding that camera.

if so then yes

Golf is VW
R32 GTR is Nissan.

I saw a Golf GTR here. I also saw a Corolla Type-R, a Sunny Evolution X and a Mustang California. Ok, ok, the last one was a fake, but good cars nonetheless.

You can meet English Girlie. She doesn't even have to know your name. Heehee.

sorry gt, I should have never mentioned the 4x4 word and I agree with you 100%. is that an SEL? I got a SEC560 that needs a bit of work. You got a good classic. That's my first car, a 190E 2.6 with AMG bits. Now it just sits around! By the way, if you want such classics, lots of them come in from J...

Etisalat sometimes give a number which someone else cancelled, but didn't bother telling it to the world that his number is cancelled. Happened to me too.

And the messages? Etisalat simply sells their phone list to the lowest bidder. And they admit it openly.

Anyway, I did a search and couldn't find it, so I will chip in with my 50 fils. I do not mind being asked if I have one dirham... I do mind the tetching (tsking) that I get if I DON'T have 1 dirham. "Maam/Sir you have one Dirham?" - even when I'm by myself, and I am no Maam. "No, do ...

I'd like to know how a few grams of drugs show up in airport scans? They got dogs in the back and wait until later to pounce on you?

Hi I will be on holidays in Dubai for a few days between December 18th and 21st. I understand that the Eid al-Adha will start on the 20th -- do you think that the shops and other touristic things in Dubai (dune bashing, diving, etc) will be closed during this period? Thanks in advance Xavier The sh...

If the case is Brits against Brits, I'm not sure who the police will side with. Most of the middle-finger cases which hit the papers is usually a local reporting a Brit.

I'm a step ahead of you. Mine is from Japan, but I found that this was better than most gcc examples I have seen. True, seems the Japs don't really drive much in their crowded cities. Their cooler weather helps too, since my interior is falling apart in the heat here. But some of their cars do have...

I bank with Emirates and they're excellent. Did you follow-up your fax with a phone call or just sit waiting for it. I often find if I need things done immediately, I go to the branch, where I get first class customer service (although I am not a first class customer). They are heaps better than Ma...

It's just a feel good act anyway. I'm 90% sure it all gets burnt or turned into landfill. True, some have seen the workers mix all the recyclables into one pile when putting it in their truck. Some also have this weird idea that their stupid Hummer is "safer," when it will be the first ve...

Not to mention asking for key money. However, businesses here seem to run on credit. Shop gets stuff from wholesaler, shop sells stuff over six months, shop then pays money owed to wholesaler.

Well... the problem is the fines are simply not enough to deter people from driving badly. At 200 dirhams... some people can afford to drive like a maniac... On the other hand... there's clear indication they could increase it to 300 and make more money... but they haven't so... don't think it's 10...

Not sure it's worth getting caught with drugs. You may get lashed. You will go to gaol. You will get anally raped in gaol (apparently big problem). You will then be deported. Or... you could just leave the drugs alone. I think anal-raping is discouraged in prisons here. It probably leads to new cha...
